Dark Splintered Heart Lyrics by The Machine In The Garden

Veils and Shadows

0

My mouth opened by a screammy body bound in chains
My soul corrupted by darkness
My heart filled with pain
My eyes burned with images
My ears ringing with bells
My stomach taken by nausea
My hands pierced with nails
Body to body, fear to fear
Eye to eye, tear to tear
Body to body, pain to pain
Mouth to mouth, again and again...
All that I wanted, all that I could
Of your deep dark splintered heart
I do what I know, I do what I should
Dear god don't tear me apart
My eyes saw your troubles
My mouth spoke your words
My ears heard your screams
My ideas destroyed your world
Body to body, fear to fear
Eye to eye, tear to tear
Body to body, pain to pain
Mouth to mouth, again and again...
All that I wanted, all that I could
Of your deep dark splintered heart
I do what I know, I do what I should
Dear god don't tear me apart
All that you wanted, all that you could
See the pain in my eyes
Drive your anger into my soul
Don't know the reasons why
All that I wanted, all that I could
Of your deep dark splintered heart
I do what I know, I do what I should
Dear god don't tear me apart
